Strawberry time again :o)

There is nothing like a bowl of fresh strawberries in a bowl of fresh heavy cream :o) even if your diabetic :o(   Ginny says "go for it" :o) and wash the floor run down the block do something that causes you to expend energy (except wash dishes).  This is a great time of year! Fresh Market had these today marked 1/4 flat  (how much is that?  it looked like 4 pints , three were together and one scattered above the three to look like a lot..(marketing strategy :o(    they were delicious.. I'm not able to do much picking so it was okay. I expect others to have sales..maybe Cecil and I will find that Blueberry farm and go picking ..I love blueberry pie..

    I love strawberries, Ginny, and blueberries, too. Those look good. Strawberry season up here is usually not till June.

    Daisy, I think these might have been imported! you can't tell where things are from unless you grew them:o) I need more land to grow everything this heart desires :o)..we have eaten almost half already :o) that means I have to get more ...

    So delicious! Our strawberry patch has just turned white with blooms this week. We'll have to wait a while yet. Enjoy your harvest.

    Robin, honest they were the best tasting strawberries I've had in quite a while ..I had seconds and my B/S will be high in the am, but at least I enjoyed them :o)

    Jody your the lucky one with your own Berry patch! I had to buy these, at least they are tasty. Sometimes you have to do the best you can.

    Annie's Granny, to be honest I had already spilled crap on my shirt so more didn't matter :o) ..Seems I'm missing my mouth here lately with age :o)

    Oh, yes! We found lovely berries at the store (not locally grown, but still very tasty) and have had strawberry shortcake twice already.
